Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah’s plea seeking withdrawal of the non-bailable arrest warrant against him was accepted on Tuesday, and fixed for hearing on October 13. Further, the petition accused the Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE) of “misrepresenting” facts in obtaining the arrest warrant. Although the court issued the arrest warrant, the ACE officials failed to arrest the minister due to a "lack of cooperation" from the police. Two days later, a fresh arrest warrant was issued for the ACE to immediately arrest the minister and produce him before the court. The previous arrest warrant had only one address of the minister mentioned, whereas it was requested to add more addresses in the fresh warrant.
